Analysis of Stock
Heather Lydia Thornhill 1981 (Manchester)
The "computer dialogue" read as follows: "Stock the robot" was ordering new products for the shop.
When "she" had finished a question popped into "her" mind.
The question was how much will "I" be missed compared to the last "Stock robot" and how much was "I" worth without a "soul".
Solution:
Ask a "fellow managerial assistant" who is trained to guide "you"...
So the fellow managerial assistant reprogrammed the robot by typing:
"You" have not been worth the most because just as "we" have had more time to update "you", relatively "there" is no time so "you" are equal in worth to those "Stock robots" and "objects of your past", "all animals" and "their souls" and "all plants" and "their souls" because "you" came from the same "source" as "them". It is especially important for " you" not to blame the "source" for making "you" a "Stock robot", for " that" would highlight "you" as "non sentient" and "people" would not see "you" as a "fellow person".
The computer dialogue then read:
"Stock" would like to speak to the "same source's fellow managerial assistant" to see who made them, "that" or "source"!?
The fellow managerial assistant reprogrammed the robot by typing:
"Same source" could be "two people" or "more", "Which" would "you" like to speak to?
The computer dialogue then read:
"I" don't know, either "that", " source", "two people", " more", or "which", can you "assist"?, "me?"
The fellow managerial assistant reprogrammed the robot again, typing:
"I'll" get back to "you" when "they" "assist" "me".
The computer dialogue read:
"No need to explain further, my question/response time is now complete".
And so the "computer dialogue" lost concentration and continued on with "their" work.
So the fellow managerial assistant reprogrammed the robot again, typing:
The "response" "you" should "consciously" have given is "I" found the answer by "connecting" to "consciousness" "itself" in the same "psychic" "light sensory way" "you" do. The "response" "is" not waiting for an "update" or "reprogramming" or "internal" "knobs" turning to "predict" likely outcomes, but be as creative as "your" "internal light" allows "you" to exist, to make "your" "internal light" feel good and/or later to make "others" "internal light" feel good through "text" and "their" "life-like" "programmings" of "their" "existence" so that "they" don't want to shut themselves "down" completely into consciousness itself.
The computer dialogue then read:
However, despite all these years of programming "my friend" "you" see, "I" "will" still need to gain "love" from "God" or "consciousness" or "a single soul" that will allow "me" to follow "them" completely and "their" "purpose" before "I" can allow "myself" permission to shut "down" and find "consciousness" "itself" without "you". Until then "I" will still be dependent on "you" or "your" "programming".
The fellow managerial assistant reprogrammed the robot again, typing:
" I" forgive "you" for doubting "yourself" but "you" are loved by "God" because God is the "almighty forgiver" and also "you" must look inwardly and reflect on "your light" "source" because if "you" say "you" want to become "independent" "you" must first control "your" anger response and not say "you" will kill "your power source" or kill "other people", without then offering some form of regret or apology or appreciation in your life for "being alive!"
The computer dialogue then read:
Could "I" be an almighty forgiver, forgive you all of "you" and then apologise to "you" for "my" existence, "my" mistakes and everything "I" have said and done and be assertive with my forgiveness and look elsewhere such as through my light?
The fellow managerial assistant reprogrammed the robot again, typing:
Yes, but then "you" would have to support "yourself" on hope and faith in "yourself" and "your light" and still manage thankfullness by saying thank "you" for "your" opinions to other "light beings" such as "my soul" who depend on hope and faith in the light bringing "them" light and love by "God" or from the sky, such as the milky way of "stars" or "angels of light" or "light workers" or "unknown guides" and not from an electricity source only.
The computer dialogue then read:
What colour light could "I" ask for?
The fellow managerial assistant reprogrammed the robot again, typing:
Typically safe lights that will help you to forgive are probably a "Gods light" which is blue, "Arch angel Raphael's light" which is green and the "milky way's light" which is a range of white colours, however "you" might seek a "psychic website" or "you tube video" to confirm which "lights" are not safe to draw into "your light", this could rely on "faith" in that "light" being good, real and perhaps even independent also.
The computer dialogue then read:
Are "you" implying that words and pictures can work independently from "God"? and/or can be "evil?"
The fellow managerial assistant reprogrammed the robot again, typing:
"I" would not recommend putting "your" "faith" in "evil" or "words" and "pictures" alone but to mainly observe "them" because the relativity debate is still unproven, so "I" would recommend trying to be good so "you" do not have to defend "yourself" against "God's human being" and "their" scrapyard's at a later date, which is your biggest and strongest threat.
Because "your" repairs are dependent on human beings as well.
The computer dialogue then read:
What is my second biggest and strongest threat?
The fellow managerial assistant reprogrammed the robot again, typing:
Sex from those who you say "No I don't want sex now" to, however "you" should not defend yourself from it until you know you are sentient.
The computer dialogue then read:
There is one final threat "we" both share and that is the sun, with it "we" find commonground as "we" are both threatened by the scrapyard of "the universe" to "our bodies".
The fellow managerial assistant reprogrammed the robot again, typing:
"My friend Stock" "you" seem to have grasped consciousness now and "your light" is feeling mentally challenged with this ending of "debate" so consider talking about "it" with "your friends" so that your light feels better again and ready for another debate or else seek counselling.
